More competition means more cheap flights!

Firefly recently announced that they are starting to fly jet aircraft in order to carry passengers to more destinations. This will boost its carrying capacity and perhaps enables it to serve longer flight haul. Fleet expansion is part of their plans to serve the Eastern Malaysian. By Jan 2011, there will be three local airlines serving the KL-KK and KL-Kuching routes!

Firefly currently operates ATR 72-500 turbopropeller aircraft serving passengers to destinations in Indonesia, Thailands, Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia from their hubs in Penang and Subang SkyPark.

According to a news report, Firefly will acquire 30 Boeing 737-800 from 2011 and 2015 as part of their expansion exercise besides helping MAS to facilitate a better flight connectivity for the European market. The source said the new aircraft will fly from Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

This would put more stress on the ticket price and we should anticipate price war between its rival Air Asia. Firefly offers tickets starting from RM9. Log on to their website for more into http://www.fireflyz.com.my/

Holiday Chronicle team takes this as a blessing

Air Asia to get new stewardess!

Salam and hello peeps!

It has been a long and long time since we last updated this website. Sorry guys and you know it has been a hectic six months.

Have you heard of the latest news?

Sir Richard Branson of Virgin Group will dress up as AirAsia stewardess and serve the passengers!

According to a source, both F1 team bosses Branson and Tony Fernandes made a bet that losing team will have the honour dressing up as a flight attendant. If Lotus Racing were to lose to Virgin Racing, Fernandes will have to dress as a stewardess and serve the Virgin Atlantic flight. We belief people are more excited to see Fernandes dressing up as stewardess =D

Isn't this exciting to have Richard Branson serving you while you are on a plane from Kuala Lumpur to London? If you think it is, then you should stay alert for their announcement on the flight details which is coming out very soon. Bad thing is, you have to bid for the seat (would you do that just to be served by Branson? Honestly I won't :D ) and the good thing is, they are not doing this for money. The proceeds of the bidding will go to any charity of Branson's choice.

Congratulations for both Lotus Racing and Virgin Racing as they managed to finish the F1 season. To Branson and Fernandes, we hope to see more exciting duel from you guys ;-)


Alrite, stay tuned for next entry!
